Cinnamon Scones

This was my first attempt at making scones, and my family asked why in the world I had never made them before. It's basically a thick, cinnamon-glazed covered pie crust. Sweet mercy. It was tasty, Next time, I'm going to add blueberries or chocolate chips. It'll be fantastic!

Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together. Cut in the butter with a fork until crumbly.

Separate the egg. Set the egg white aside.

In a bowl, combine the egg yolk, honey, and buttermilk. Add the the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Flour a surface and plop the dough out. Shape it into a ball then pat it into into a 1/2 inch thick 8 inch round. Using a pizza cutter, cut it into 8 pieces just like a pizza. Transfer it to a greased cookie sheet. Whisk the reserved egg white until frothy. Brush it onto the tops of the scones. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on top.

I'm happy as a little kid on Christmas morning when someone tells me that they tried and loved recipes that I post. If I could get just one person to love to cook more than they did yesterday, I've done good in the world. :)
